Hm.  Well, I never think it is a great thing when we really question if we are about to marry the right one.  No one can tell you if he is the right one or not-----------  that is your call.  Your heart, gut and head should all agree that this is the right decision.  

I look at marriage as a whole package.  I look at it from the "business side"-------- this includes such thngs as if we share the same goals, the same religious faith, the same ideas about family, the same ideas on financial issues (how we are going to spend our money), same ideas on how we will structure our household, if we want kids, etc.  All of that must be discussed and issues talked about before marriage or . . . if you have a major difference in the "business" end of marriage and can't compromise----------  the relationship could very well fall apart.  People often ignore these things and say love will get you through . . . it usually doesn't.  It is good to be as similar in values as possible or able to verbalize where you differ and where each of you will compromise.  
The second part of marriage is the love stuff.  Important too.  Must be attracted to them, like their personality most of the time, feel that those warm and fuzzy feelings for them.  
Third, the gut.  This is what screams at you that something is wrong or tells you to relax, it is okay.  It is just something I say to not ignore either way as sometimes if the business side of marriage and the love side of marriage aren't matching up----------- it is your gut that tells you and it can also make you feel better when you have a moment of doubt about things as well.

Is pre marriage counseling something you could do?  I think every couple should do it because it gets the questions that are important out in the open and gets couples to start discussing them.  I learned a lot about my  husband to be in premarital counseling.

But you do worry me as you also posted earlier about wondering what it is like to go on a first date.  

Anyway, you must look within to find out if this marriage is the right way to go or not.  Good luck

If you love him, there shouldn't be a question as to whether there is someone out there for you.  My advice is don't get married unless you are 100% sure this is the man you want to spend the rest of your life with . . .
